Probably a recipe from America's Test Kitchen or Cook magazine. Chris Kimball is legit autist.

Tomatoes concase. (That means peel and de seed.)
Salt pepper, basil, oregano.
Cook down.
Tada
Maybe a pinch of cayanne

I've never understood this woman and her seeming pride in absolutely nothing. The tragedy is that this is a delicious and traditional technique, she's just using the wrong ingredients and bad ingredients.

NEVER. EVER. EEEEEEEEVVVVEEEREERRRRR PUT OREGANO WITHIN 10FT OF TOMATO SAUCE YOU DISGUSTING AMERIFAT!

Now, to actually try and answer your question:
There is no one true tomato sauce recipe to rule them all because of regional variations within Italy itself, but the particular kind that I make reduces tomato sauce down to its essential elements.
The ONLY ingredients:
Olive oil
Cooking onions OR garlic, not both.
Tomatoes concasse (ideally San Marzano)
Fresh basil
Sea salt
1) Saute onion or garlic on medium-high heat in saucepan in olive oil until clear and fragrant.
2) Reduce heat to medium-low and add tomatoes.
3) Add a little salt (remember that evaporation will concentrate the flavor! Don't add too much yet!)
4) Add quite a bit of fresh basil (whole leaves or chopped, I prefer chopped)
5) Simmer and stir occasionally until it tastes like tomato sauce, usually ~30-45 minutes.
This sounds like it will be plain and flavorless, but it will not be. Most non-Italians severely undercook their tomato sauce, and/or use the wrong variety of tomatoes. They then try to mask this by adding in a bunch of shit that does not belong.
With tomato sauce, patience is a virtue.

This seems pretty autistic, might be what I'm looking for.
What do you normally pick when it comes to the onion or garlic?
And I thought good sauces usually cook for much longer than that? Or am I wrong?

Why not? Tastes good.
3/4 of ketchup
3/4 cup of butter

>>Cooking onions OR garlic, not both.
Why not? Most recipes I know both from real life and some from online use both as do I given that both provide great flavor, garlic especially.
Also your cooking time seems a bit on the low side, I leave mine to slow boil like 1:15 to 1:30 hours, splashing water as the need arises.
Tomatoes
Olive Oil
Onions
Garlic
Cinnamon
Cloves
Bay Leaf
Salt
Black Pepper

I don't fucking know. I just do olive oil, garlic, tomatoes, salt/pepper, little bit of chile, simmer it down, throw in some fresh basil when it reaches the consistency you want, and call it a day
It's fucking tomato sauce. Just do whatever.
1 can Tomato Sauce, 15 oz.
¼ cup Water
1 tsp Sugar
¼ tsp Oregano
¼ tsp Basil
¼ tsp Garlic Powder
¼ tsp Salt
⅛ tsp Black Pepper
1 Whole Bay Leaf
½ tsp Lemon Juice
Directions
In a large sauce pan, add tomato sauce, water, sugar, oregano, basil, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, bay leaf, and lemon juice and mix.
Bring to a boil over medium/ high heat.
Lower heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 30 minutes.

So you haven't noticed a single thing wrong apart from the ingredients? Not the way she chops? Not the way she uses a butter knife for it? How about when she pours like a cup of oil into the sauce and throws the garlic, onions and basil away?

Good canned tomatoes are better than bad fresh ones. Respected chefs often recommend importing canned tomatoes from Italy rather than buying shitty American ones.

Actual italian from italy here, tomato sauce is the easiest shit.
Ingredients:
>1 can of peeled tomato
>1 clove of garlic
>olive oil
>salt
>pepper
>sugar
>oregano
>fresh basil leaves
Preparation:
>oil in the pan with the garlic
>medium heat, infuse that oil with flavor
>when it starts to sizzle add the peeled tomatoes
>once it gets warm crush the tomatoes with a fork
>add salt, pepper, sugar, oregano to taste
>cook until it is about to reach the consistency you like, then add 3-4 basil leaves
>keep cooking it for another 2-3 minutes
Add this shit to a simple pasta such as spaghetti or penne. Add some sliced peperoncino to turn it into an "arrabbiata".
